Ranabhat opens housing project Pokhara, Nov. 8 (RSS): On the occasion of the 11th Constitution Day, Speaker Taranath Ranabhat inaugurated the Pokhara Housing Project launched by the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) for the benefit of its depositors. Speaker Ranabhat also initiated the task of handing over the house ownership documents to the owners of the house under the Pokhara Housing Project. The construction work of 109 low cost houses, lower medium and medium standard houses have been completed on 31 Ropanis of land owned by the EPF. The housing project with provisions of roads, drainage, schools, parking area, compound and supply of electricity and water has been completed at a cost of Rs 40,644,616 at ward No. 17 of Pokhara sub metropolitan city. Addressing the function, Speaker Ranabhat said that as the development of the country was impossible with the spontaneous participation of the people, the present constitution formulated with the support of the king and the people is outstanding. Stating that as some of the laws have not yet been formulated in accordance with the provisions of the constitution, the people could not exercise all the rights provided by the constitution which by itself was free of faults, Speaker Ranabhat said that he was not in favour of an amendment to the constitution at the present stage. Pointing out the need for the civic society to recognise dutiful persons with high moral character, and punish the smugglers and mafia, he said that people are disillusioned with democracy due to the wrong activities of the leaders. Speaker Ranabhat noted that the Pokhara housing project launched by EPF would set an example in the construction of low cost houses. EPF administrator Rajesh Rajkarnicar, project chief Kedarnath Gautam and technical advisor Bhuvaneshwar Lal Shrestha also expressed their views at the function chaired by EPF chairman and secretary at the Ministry of General Administration Mukunda Prasad Aryal.
